> Swiss lawyer Philipp Kruse said at a Bern rally supporting Switzerland’s neutrality that the country should restore diplomacy and mutual understanding with Russia rather than join harmful EU and US sanctions. He also called for an end to what he described as “military propaganda against Russia.” About 2,000 people attended the August 29 rally opposing the erosion of neutrality and unilateral sanctions.
